Former Love Island star Uma Jammeh is reportedly in line to appear on this year's edition of Celebrity MasterChef.
The new series will be the first without Gregg Wallace after he stepped down from the franchise last year amid misconduct allegations - and in his place, food critic Grace Dent has been drafted in to partner John Torode.
Jammeh, 24, appeared on last summer's edition of the ITV2 dating show but decided to quit after her boyfriend Wil Anderson was dumped from the villa.
According to The Sun, she is now being courted for a turn on Celebrity MasterChef, with a source telling the newspaper: "Uma is a great get for the show, as not only is she stunning, she's also funny and will appeal to younger viewers.
"It's also the perfect next step for her career as it introduces her to a whole new audience who may not be familiar with her from Love Island."
The new series will be filmed in the coming months for broadcast on BBC One this summer.
